The Collingsworth Family is composed of eight members, with Phil and Kim Collingsworth as the lead vocalists. They are known for their tight harmonies, impeccable technique, and powerful stage presence.

One of the unique techniques used by The Collingsworth Family is their use of vibrato, particularly in their ballads. Vibrato is a natural oscillation of pitch in a sustained note that adds warmth, depth, and expressiveness to the voice. One of the keys to mastering vibrato is proper breath support (link to Singing Carrots' content on breath support), which creates a solid foundation for the voice to oscillate.
